Inamulhaq Anwar, 34, (pictured) will serve an indefinite teaching ban for a minimum of six years

Two teachers who worked at a 'Trojan Horse'-linked school where pupils were 'fed on a diet of Islam' have been banned from the classroom for life.

Inamulhaq Anwar, 34, and 41-year-old Akeel Ahmed had denied a central allegation they had agreed with others to place 'an undue amount of religious influence in pupils' education'.

At the end of last year a professional standards panel handed both the former staff members at Park View Academy in Alum Rock, Birmingham, interim teaching bans after finding the allegation proven, while a final decision was awaited.

Today the National College for Teaching and Leadership (NCTL) announced Mr Anwar would serve an indefinite ban for a minimum period of six years.

His former colleague, Mr Ahmed will serve a ban with a minimum term of three years.

The decision means that neither man is allowed to teach in any school, sixth form college, youth accommodation or children's home in England.

Both Mr Anwar and Mr Ahmed can apply to have the bans set aside but only after the minimum terms have elapsed.

Brian Tytherleigh, from the Department for Education, said: 'Mr Inamulhaq Anwar is prohibited from teaching indefinitely and cannot teach in any school, sixth form college, relevant youth accommodation or children's home in England.

'He may apply for the prohibition order to be set aside, but not until 18 February, 2022, six years from the date of this order at the earliest.

'This is not an automatic right to have the prohibition order removed.'

In relation to Mr Ahmed, Mr Tytherleigh added: 'He may apply for the prohibition order to be set aside, but not until 18 February 2019, three years from the date of this order at the earliest.'

Both men have 28 days to appeal against their bans to the High Court.

Last November an NCTL panel recommended teaching bans, after concluding pupils had been 'immersed in orthodox Islamic doctrine' through measures including the use of the school loudspeaker system to broadcast a daily call-to-prayer to Park View's pupils.

The panel also found while there was no formal agreement to change the character of the schools involved, there had been a coordinated attempt at the state-funded schools to include 'undue religious influence'.

It further found no evidence of Islamic 'extremism' at work in the classrooms.

In all, 13 former staff members including ex-headteachers at Park View Educational Trust (PVET) and Oldknow Academy have been facing misconduct hearings, as a result of scandal's fallout.

The panel said it had heard 'credible' evidence from a staff member who described Mr Ahmed and Mr Anwar's roles as that of 'generals' in contributing to making sure pupils were 'fed a diet of Islam' which had in turn 'stifled their development as normal teenagers'.
